Overview

A119 anchor road improvement scheme.

Material Specification
3,200 tonnes of SHW Clause 803 Type 1 Subbase Granite Blend.

Client
Interserve Project Services Ltd.

Delivery Partner
Barton Plant Ltd.

Construction

The road improvement scheme was a 3km new road construction. IBAA (Incinerator Bottom Ash Aggregate) Type 1 Granite Blend subbase was used at an average thickness of 270mm and covered by 300mm of asphalt.

Benefit

IBAA is an extremely cost-effective material when compared to Primary Aggregates and BP UK is working towards a verified Carbon Footprint. There are also advantages logistically when using IBAA due to the low density of the material allowing for fewer vehicle movements as this gives volumetric advantages over primary materials.
